Schedule played

How strong the opponents each team has played have been.

Opp RkAverage Opponent Rank: The average current Power Rank of the opponents. Lower is harder. Quick to read, but a rank hides how far apart teams are.
Opp W%Average Opponent Win%: The opponents’ combined winning percentage. Records only: it doesn’t weigh who those wins came against or where the games were played.
Opp EloAverage Opponent Elo: The opponents’ average rating, adjusted for where each game is played: a road game counts the opponent as stronger, a home game as weaker.
